Dyson Develops Coronavirus Ventilators

June 7, 2020 By Christian in Default

The Dyson Company, a British based corporation that’s known for producing a multitude of household appliances, announced in March that they’d developed a new ventilator named CoVent. This confirmation noted that it took Dyson Engineers several days to produce this coronavirus ventilator. CoVent was created after a significant order was obtained by the United Kingdom Government, requesting that the corporation do what they can to assist COVID-19 patients. Most corporations with viable manufacturing lines have supported parliament with their mission to curve the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dyson’s Digital Motor Technology was reformatted for the CoVent Ventilator, with the entire process taking ten days to accomplish. This period comprised of the Blueprint Phase, which took three days for engineers to complete. After the 1st phase was completed, Dyson engineers entered the 2nd stage. These required internal models are developed & shown to executives before approval, which took an additional several days.

Dyson Executives approved the final model & immediately began production on ten thousand ventilators. All CoVent’s manufactured will be shipped to the National Health Service. This follows after COVID-19 infections continue to run rampant throughout the United Kingdom, with civilians refusing to abide by social distancing measures.

CoVent Details

Dyson Engineers 1st took on this project during Mid-March. By months end, details regarding the CoVent were released to the public. It was noted that this ventilator is bed-mounted & portable, potentially assisting thousands of patients over its lifetime. Dyson confirmed that its manufacturing process is efficient & straightforward, with engineers purposely designing the CoVent to adhere by the specific clinical needs of patients with COVID-19. When the Dyson Company made this confirmation, representatives informed that 5000 CoVent’s will be donated to new institutions in lack of ventilators. This included Elderly Housing Facilities & Independent Health Institutions.

Dyson began releasing these ventilators before April 15th, with the full order having been completed by June 1st. Fifteen thousand ventilators were manufactured & shipped by the Dyson Company in less than two months. It shows the incredible capabilities behind their manufacturing process.

AR Glasses Being Designed by Apple

May 31, 2020 By Christian in Default

The Apple Company is suspected of developing “Augmented Reality Wearable Headsets”, which will be limited to the brand name of Apple Glass. This follows after rumours began circulating on YouTube from the FPT Channel. Hosted by Jon Prosser, previous leaks from Front Page Tech have typically been correct. Under the details provided by the FPT Host, these augmented glasses will cost $499.99 without an additional prescription lens.

Illustrated models of what Apple Glass will look like were leaked. The design influences on the standard Matte White used with the majority of Apple’s products. Their logo is placed nearby the frame’s hinges, with the word Glass written beside it. Design implementations will please dedicated supported behind the iOS Ecosystem. It should be noted that Jon Prosser didn’t reveal software implementations onto Apple Glass, with that information most likely being kept internal until announcement day.

There’ve been rumours for four years regarding the concept of AR Headsets from the Apple Company. Competing manufactures like Google and HTC released their respective AR Headset years ago. Typical to the strategic business operations of Apple, their delaying the release until software & physical production has been perfected. It’s this core mentality that’s allowed for the iPhone, iPad, and Mac Computers to continuously outsell year-after-year.

July 2019 marked the 1st date that Apple’s AR Technologies could publicly be seen. They worked with the New York New Museum to develop an application for iOS. It enabled guests to use their smartphone cameras for witnessing “Digital Art Installations”. These installations weren’t located exclusively in the New Museum, but also elsewhere in Manhattan. Analysts continually speculated that similar technologies would be implemented into the inevitable AR Headset from Apple. It should be noted that the Apple Company hasn’t confirmed this leaked information.

Initial Competition

It’ll be interesting to see which avenue Apple approached with their AR Glasses. Standard consumers didn’t adopt this technology when it was released in 2014. It’d be large-scale businesses in dozens of industries that found Google Glass to be a powerful tool. Similar measures could be enforced with Apple’s AR Glasses.

The Tenzo Tiny Home

May 24, 2020 By Christian in Home Renovation

Purchasing property has become challenging in the modern era. Homes have become considerably more expensive & forced younger generations to rethink how they approach their living circumstances. One of the most effective and accessible ways to obtain property without spending an influx of funds or receiving a mortgage with a bank. Multiple manufacturers have their innovative designs for tiny home living.

Most recently it was “In-Tanta Creative Studio” from Barcelona that announced their latest model. It’s named the Tenzo and will cost €40,000.00 after taxes. Considering that most Trucks & Premium Cars cost more than the associated price of this tiny home, it’s perfect for younger generations. It sustains functionality and modularity, meaning customization options for consumers. Availability is exclusive to consumers in the European Union.

The Tenzo is an environmentally protective model from In-Tanta. This is possible by removing the conventional foundation cement used with traditional homes. Recycled materials are used to ensure that the earth wasn’t polluted in the process of manufacturing this home. However, shipping this Tiny Modular Home will prompt extensive pollution depending on where it’s going.

The In-Tanta Creative Studio claims that six people can live happily & spaciously in this tiny home, which comprises of 430 Square Feet. It’s 13.5 Feet Wide, and 32 Feet Long. This is considerably large for a little house but not enough for six people in one space. Most municipalities in the European Union don’t support this level of human consumption in such a small area. Subsequently, the Tenzo is more suited for two or three individuals.

Details Inside the Tenzo

Those purchasing the Tenzo receive three bedrooms, which are accompanied by two bathrooms. An open concept is implemented between the living room & kitchen, with a sliding door separating the two spaces. Multiple windows flood the 430 Square Feet with natural light, which is perfect for eating breakfast on the pre-installed table with four chairs. Included with this purchase is a Microwave, Freezer, Dual-Burner Cooktop, Sink, and Refrigerator. This extends towards a pre-installed 2.3-Foot Sofa Bed. Accounting for all these attributes with the modern design creatives a desirable tiny home.

Taxis, Bathrooms, and Offices Need COVID-19 Redesigns

May 10, 2020 By Christian in Default

New technologies are being implemented in multiple industries to ensure safety against the COVID-19 pandemic. Commuting applications are creating detection programs that guarantee drivers are obeying social distancing protocols, meaning face masks are being worn, and hand sanitizer is regularly being used.

The announcement of the detection protocols follows after Uber confirmed both passengers & drivers would be required to wear face coverings while commuting from one location to another. These requirements apply to the United States of America, Canada, and Great Britain. Additional markets are slated to be supported by June 2020.

The Head of Safety Communications with Uber was questioned on the newly advised protocols for passengers & drivers. He noted that the Uber Company is beginning their 1st phase of recovery operations, with measures expected to be lifted as COVID-19 cases begin to deplete worldwide.

Health Experts Redesigning Public Bathrooms

Contractors are being provided new building codes, and design protocols as the COVID-19 pandemic continue to unfold worldwide. Infection control measures are required to ensure that workforces are protected from the virus, with any worksite found disobeying the protocols being penalized with a substantial fine. Nations like the United States and Canada have allowed construction workforces to remain active, causing these employees to risk their lives regularly. Hazard pay or additional benefits are being provided to these essential workers.

Construction workforces are being told by Health Experts to increase the number of Touch Sensors, Self-Cleaning Toilets, Electronic Doors, and Voice-Controlled Lights into all buildings moving forward. This will allow humans to enter new facilities without having ever to touch their surroundings. All construction sites will have to focus on hygiene instead of innovation. Limiting the exposure to COVID-19 and all future superbugs has become most famous for health experts.

New features to offices and entertainment facilities could include voice-commanded elevators. Workplaces would be divided by large-scale panels, ensuring all employees aren’t in contact with one another. Similar measures would be enforced within entertainment facilities, meaning that conventional experiences in bowling alleys or movie theatres will be considerably different. It should be noted that this will be a reality of life for roughly two years.

Sony Designs & Unveils New Compact Smartphone

May 2, 2020 By Christian in Default

The Sony Corporation – Mobile Division, is looking to make a comeback throughout 2020. This follows after the company has struggled to meet consumer demands with modernized smartphones. Two genres in this industry have maintained the Premium and Mid-Range Space. Sony previously unveiled its Premium handset earlier this year. Late April would mark the date when the Sony Xperia L4 would be officially unveiled, providing multiple upgrades in comparison to the 2019 model.

The 1st significant upgrade related to the screen, which boasts a 6.2-Inch Screen with 1080- resolution in the 21:9 aspect ratio. This makes it a significantly larger device to its predecessor, with the resolution also improved. The most substantial improvement applies to the aspect ratio. Sony is the exclusive manufacturer that engages with the 21:9 AR, with this form factor providing premium viewing experiences with films and video game content.

Sony unveiled that this aspect ratio is targeted towards consumers wanting to multitask, with released footage showcasing someone texting while using YouTube at the same time. Photographers will find reliability with this multitasking technology, as the three-lens camera system can be engaged while editing with Photoshop. Unique outcomes will follow with this unique opportunity.

The three lenses supported with the Xperia L4 include a 13 Megapixel F/2.0 Primary Sensor. Additional sensors include an Ultra-Wide 5MP Lens at F/2.2 and the Depth Lens at 2MP F/2.4. It should be mentioned that these modular are low-level in comparison to premium handsets, but that’s what’s sustained with Mid-Range devices.

Additional Specs

A 3,580mAh battery powers the Sony Xperia L4. PR Representatives claim this’ll last a full day of usage. That 24-hour timeframe is possible because of the MediaTek Helio P22 Chipset, which is alternated to perform on lower-grade devices with smaller-sized specifications. That’s why consumers will notice that the L4 supports the minimum of 3GB in RAM, which extends towards the 64GB of storage space. Those wanting to purchase this handset internationally can’t until Spring 2020. However, it’s currently available in the United Kingdom for £169.00. Locations supporting this device include UK Sony Centre’s and Curry’s PC World.

LG Velvet Design and Release Date Revealed

April 25, 2020 By Christian in Default

Smartphone manufacturers worldwide have begun announcing their latest models for the 2020 Fiscal Year, with all announcements confirming that launches will be exclusive to the online space. Retail companies like Verizon and Sprint won’t receive new devices until the North American economy is reopened. Regardless, the latest manufacturer to announce its new smartphone is the LG Company.

Called the LG Velvet, this device will replace the G Series and focus on modernized features. Minimal information regarding the LG Velvet has been provided, with details not slated to arrive until May 7th. Teasers were released to the LG YouTube Channel, stating that anyone worldwide can join the online announcement stream for this mobile handset.

The most crucial detail noted throughout the teaser video are the rear camera lenses. Throughout the tear, four different colours are displayed across these lenses. This is an artistic decision from the LG Company, secretly showcasing the four colour options available with the LG Velvet. Those colours will include Aurora Gray, Illusion Sunset, Aurora White, and Aurora Green.

The Rumours

Details on the camera lenses weren’t provided, but rumours indicate that it’ll support identical features and megapixel counts to the Google Pixel Four. Considering the GP4 was named the best cameras of 2019, these lenses will be highly welcomed if rumours are true. It should be mentioned that the structural frame behind the LG Velvet has changed as well, showcasing more of vertical design. This falls in line with the modern design of smartphones throughout 2020.

There have been multiple leaks regarding the LG Company’s latest smartphone. Informal sources like MobileSyrup and TechRadar noted that this manufacturer was releasing a Triple-Lens smartphone supporting the Snapdragon 765 Chipset. They were considering that both these sources got the lens set up correctly, they’re more than likely correct about chipsets. Regardless of the rumours, consumers considering this handset won’t have to wait long to witness the May 7th confirmation stream.

Confirmation on the available retailers that’ll support this handset through their online stores hasn’t been provided. Considering this is a Mid-Range Smartphone, companies like Sprint and Verizon are more likely to help this handset. AT&T Customers are focused on the premium group, meaning devices of $1,000.00 or higher are exclusively permitted.

Ferrari Designing Respirators for Italian Civilians

April 18, 2020 By Christian in Default

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted unexpected companies to start manufacturing medical equipment for healthcare providers worldwide. This extends multiple Formula One Teams, including the Ferrari, which is based in Italy. They’re continuing to assist with the COVID-19 crisis after it was confirmed that production on updated respirator valves has begun. They’ll be fitted to existing protective masks created by the Maranello Factory and added to all new models.

This pandemic has dominated over the Italians, prompting one of the most historical nations worldwide to enter a standstill. Civilians throughout the various provinces have rallied together through social distancing, with footage showing them signing from their balconies. Classic songs from the Roman Era have resurfaced throughout the pandemic, showing that Italians never stopped believing in their heritage and will continue to pursue onwards like the gladiators before them.

It’s for reasons like this that the Ferrari Formula One Team has implemented multiple measures for assistance. This includes providing a €10 Million Donation to the Italian Red Cross, with numerous vehicles being supplied under the Fiat Chrysler Company. Most forget that Ferrari is operated and maintained by Fiat, another Italian-based auto manufacturer. These infamous corporations have implemented the usage of Maranello, allowing for Italian Civilians employed by Ferrari and Fiat to assist their people by creating respirators or ventilators.

Medical equipment is 1st distributed throughout Italy, with minor supplies provided to the remainder of Europe. North, Central and South America have been left to their accords for medical equipment production. This extends towards Australia, Asian Nations and Africa. Fittings for respirator masks aren’t the common task for Ferrari and Fiat employees. Crafting the latest prototype for the 2021 Formula One Season is their typical assignment.

The UK Faulters

However, employees have expressed their gratitude for being able to provide help in any way possible. Thousands throughout Italy want to aid, similar to the United Kingdom’s National Healthcare System Initiative, which saw 400k civilians register to become volunteers during COVID-19.

However, the Italian Government hasn’t implemented similar measures. It should be noted that the UK hasn’t practised severe social distancing measures, with them often being broken by law enforcement and civilians. Proof of this was displayed at the London Bridge, which saw hundreds of UK Citizens and Law Enforcement clap for the National Healthcare Services. Nurses backlashed against their decisions, as not following social distancing measures is the furthest thing from thanking these individuals. It’ll just prompt an increase of confirmed cases and most likely deaths.

OnePlus 8 Design Revealed

April 12, 2020 By Christian in Default

Supporters behind the OnePlus smartphone brand were anticipating a full reveal by April 14th. However, multiple leaks and confirmations surrounding the OnePlus 8 Handset have made this reveal unnecessary. Information known about this handset includes the added capabilities of Wireless Charging and 5G Telecommunications. Mobile phone analysts didn’t anticipate any additional confirmations on this handset until April 14th.

Those individuals were incorrect, with the OnePlus Company showcasing a significant preview of their upcoming product through Twitter and their respective Forums. This posting was meant to showcase how far OnePlus has come since their 1st phone in 2012. It should be noted that the standard model was shown, with the Pro Edition still being secretive. Diehard supporters behind the OnePlus brand will view this streamed press conference to educate themselves on the additional features.

OnePlus Fanatics were shocked when this brand revealed that new materials are being used for the handsets framing. It’ll enable for the infamous Haze Effect with OnePlus handsets to become more defined, while also ensuring a more comfortable feeling for long-term usage. That’ll be possible with a lighter and thinner housing case. When looking throughout the Forum Posting, there are minimal details revealed about the full-scale design of the standard and pro models.

The Colours

The camera bump and front of the phone are kept hidden with a teaser, showing instead of the back of this handset. Consumers immediately noticed the new Green Haze Effect, which hasn’t been seen with OnePlus for over four generation cycles. It should be noted that additional colour schemes will be supported. Rumours suggest that the Haze Effect with OnePlus will be combined with a Blue, Red, Silver and Orange metallic housing structure. Standard models without the Haze Effect will also be released in Black and White. It’ll allow for consumers to have a selection of six colours for the OnePlus 8 Standard & Pro.

The Press Conference

Those wanting to know the additional details of this handset should watch the streamed press conference on April 14th. Information on the camera capabilities, remaining design and specialized features will be revealed during this conference. It should be mentioned that those wanting to purchase this handset will be forced to implement an online-only sale or contract. Telecommunication outlets are shutdown for COVID-19.

April 3, 2020 By Christian in Default

The intuitive capabilities from engineers employed by Mercedes AMG-Petronas were proved again on April 2nd.

Results have proven beneficial for the testing units, with Mercedes confirming that 1000+ CPAP Apparatuses will be manufactured daily by March 6th. This follows after the University London College Hospital releases results that were reviewed by the Medicines & Healthcare Regulatory Agency. They approved the development of these CPAPs going forward.

The Call to Battle

Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, requested that capable manufacturing facilities begin altering their line-ups for the development of medical equipment. Business analysts anticipated that a small number of companies would abide by this request. However, a large percentage of manufacturing facilities began supporting the UK Ventilator Challenge. Those include the Ford Company, Airbus, Siemens, McLaren, Williams Racing and Red Bull Aston martin. Each respective company has received orders for 10+ thousand ventilators. It’s expected that the United Kingdom will be fully stocked on medical supplies by April 31st.

Representatives with Mercedes AMG-Petronas F1 Division spoke on the manufacturing advanced. It was expressed that innovative engineers from Formula One and the University of London created one of the most mobile ventilator masks worldwide. This follows after their notable determination towards assisting their local communities. We’re proud of our team and proud to help England through these unprecedented times. It should be mentioned that Lewis Hamilton and Toto Wolff have both supported the decision to manufacturer medical equipment.
